Listen to Her Purr

67 Chevy Impala

The Impala has all the things other cars have. And a few things they don't. But none of that stuff's important.
This is the stuff that's important: the army man that Sam crammed in the ashtray - it's still stuck there. And the Legos that Dean shoved into the vents - to this day, heat comes on and they can hear 'em rattle. These are the things that make the car theirs - really theirs. Even when Dean rebuilt her from the ground up, he made sure all these little things stayed, 'cause it's the blemishes that make her beautiful.
In between jobs, Sam and Dean would sometimes get a day - sometimes a week, if they were lucky. They'd pass the time lining their pockets. Sam used to insist on honest work, but now he hustles pool, like his big brother. They could go anywhere and do anything. They drove 1,000 miles for an Ozzy show, two days for a Jayhawks game.
And when it was clear, they'd park her in the middle of nowhere, sit on the hood, and watch the stars. For hours. Without saying a word. It never occurred to them that, sure, maybe they never really had a roof and four walls...
but they were never, in fact, homeless.
